QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 09:33 AM) Alexei would have net us a Samardzija like return about a month and a half ago, but his BA dropped about 50 points since then. Nonetheless, I would like to see a pitching or catching prospect ranked in or just outside the Top 100, and I think that's realistic. People are forgetting Semien already, I think he can still cut it as a SS. Quietly, he picked up himself bounced back nicely in Charlotte since demotion. Exactly. He's easily the best SS that will be available. I think of the Mariners, and they have interest in Viciedo too. So if I'm Hahn, I would offer Alexei and Viciedo for Taijuan Walker, Brandon Maurer, Gabriel Guerrero, and Tyler Pike.

why is this an important topic? lol

Semien 2-3 HR, 3 RBIs Davidson 2-3 HR, 3 RBIs Taylor 2-2 HR, 4 RBIs Hawkins 0-3 2Ks DeMichele 2-2 Coats 1-2 2B Rondon 1-2 2B May 0-2

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 01:34 PM) 3-run homer for Davidson. Finally not a solo shot!

Doren is having an Erik Johnson outing. Goldberg has sucked this whole year.

Goldberg is starting instead of Olacio today for the Dash.

Max Wildstein ⚾️ ‏@MaxWildstein 7m #Reds Chien-Ming Wang will opt out of his #MiLB deal and will sign with the #ChiSox, sources tell @GSIntegration. #MLB lol

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 11:13 AM) Question - where do Carlos Sanchez and Micah Johnson fall into the minor league rankings of IF prospects? I had heard Jim Callis say he thinks he'll become any everyday/solid MLB player, but, as fans, are we setting up ourselves for a fall if these guys are just average players? Granted, we may need both of these guys in the near future with Ramirez being a free agent and Beckham being Beckham, and our minor league system does need to produce lower cost options.... Micah Johnson is ranked 3rd among MiLB 2nd basemen and Carlos Sanchez is not ranked in the top 10 but that's understandable.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 10:43 AM) You don't "use an option" on a guy when you bring him up. You use an option year when he is on the 40-man roster and assigned to the minors at any point during the season. So Sanchez has already burned an option year this year and no amount of bringing him up and sending him down affects that. Thank you for the clarification. My apologies.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 10:07 AM) Maybe we can dump Gordon over the break Exactly what I was thinking. It would really suck to use an option on Sanchez for one game...

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 09:20 AM) Who the hell is Doran? Is he related to Bill(y) Doran who used to play for the Astros in the 80's? Bill Duran Doran, etc. Bobby Doran. They just acquired him the other day from the Astros for SS Jeffery Santos. Big right hander. 25 years old.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 09:52 PM) http://www.csnchicago.com/cubs/cubs-sit-th...&ocid=yahoo How much would the Cubs have to eat in salary to take Edwin Jackson back from the Cubs and for Cooper to rehab him into a top-flight starter again? Impossible to happen? Probably. But it would be sweet revenge. I'd give them Scott Snodgress and they eat half of remaining contract.

Semien with a HR

Carlos Sanchez?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 05:16 PM) Ravelo playing 3rd tonight...has he played there at all this year? I don't think so. Hawkins with another double.

2 doubles for Hawkins

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 01:14 PM) maybe 4 if CC and Tanaka aren't 100% all of next year which seems very plausible at this point. Yankees fans would call for Cashman's head then. Spending all that cash and they could be looking at a 4th place finish in the division.

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 11m Rick Hahn: "Thrilled to add Carlos to organization. Carlos was main target ... to get this thing on track and on track quickly." Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 10m Hahn: "We view him as front-line starter in the not-too-distant future" Dan Hayes ‏@DanHayesCSN 7m Rick Hahn: "It's a possibility (Rodon pitches in majors) based on his ability." Said its conceivable. #WhiteSox Dan Hayes ‏@DanHayesCSN 6m #WhiteSox will incur a tax for exceeding draft pool, per Rick Hahn. Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 1m Hahn on @CarlosRodon16 : "He wants to be the best. He wants the ball and wants to be the front end type we envision him being."

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 12:48 PM) Jerry Crasnick ‏@jcrasnick 8m The #Yankees have acquired pitcher Jeff Francis from the #athletics in a trade, source says. I hope I have to eat these words, but I don't see Danks going to the Yankees. They are acquiring cheap, stop-gap type starters. I don't think they will want to give up prospects/inherit Danks salary. Then they can accept not making the playoffs for 3 straight years then.

QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 10:24 AM) To tel you the truth, I'd rather see Dan Black on the South Side than Wilkins if possible, that kid has earned it with his time and numbers in the minors...not that Wilkins hasn't If going off prior success, Wilkins deserves it more than Black.
